I don’t “do” Harry Potter at all, so when I saw this “castle” in my favourite charity shop in Evesham for just 80p, I thought I would take it, as something to just put in the toy cupboard for when Iris and Bertie come round.
The first discovery I made, when I got home, was that it took batteries and when I put some in it made (awful) noises and parts moved, which was all very exciting and then when I discovered what looked like a tiny Harry Potter figure in the secret drawer in the back, I thought I had better do some research .....
…… only to find it was a Mattel, Polly Pocket Hogwarts Castle dating from, I think, 2001. All the figures, except for Harry, a table and a telescope are missing. Needless to say Iris and Bertie love to get it out, but it seems it does have a value, even though incomplete.
I have been planning on doing some Ebaying for quite a while now, (last time I did, it paid for Eurovision in Stockholm) but this time lockdown got in the way, now, do I add this to the list of things to sell ...... or do I wait until Iris and Bertie stop asking for it ………that is the question!

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!
Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
